Russell Brand is launching his world tour called The Messiah Complex that will be about people who genuinely think that they are Jesus. He referenced it as an actual mental illness that people go to institutions for. Russell Brand is going to be travelling all over America, the Middle East, and Europe, and really isn’t worried about how people will react to his controversial material. In fact, he thought it would all be quite exciting.

The Messiah Complex is going to touch on some of Russell Brand’s heroes such as Malcolm X, Che Guevara, Jesus, and Gandhi. He wants to talk about all of them and how they relate to us now. He found that many heroes today don’t have integral value, which he thought was important for any hero to have, and he was going to be reinstating that.

Today Show: Russell Brand And Katy Perry

Russell Brand recently gave an interview to Esquire Magazine, where he spoke on his marriage to Katy Perry. A remark from that interview that stuck out as particularly interesting. He explained that he and Katy both have a lot of options, so when you get married to someone like that, you have to really want it.

Though Russell Brand appeared to at first not understand the question, he eventually answered the question quite aptly. He said that this answer was basically his way of saying just how hard marriage could be in his trademark, sarcastic manner. However, he didn’t say this without also mentioning that he would most definitely get married to Katy Parry all over again should the opportunity present itself.

About Daniel Hill

Daniel Hill, here. After graduating from Duquesne University in 2012 with a journalism degree, I stumbled around in the dark for a bit before finding a home at Recapo in Cincinnati. I enjoy going to the gym, writing (duh), reading, music, and a LOT of video games. Get at me, fellow nerds.
